Craig Breslow has made some savvy trades during his tenure as chief baseball officer of the Boston Red Sox, but few of them have come at the trade deadline. Boston's late season additions haven't worked out well for it, and Dustin May was no exception.
Fortunately, the St. Louis Cardinals have prevented the Red Sox from forging a potential reunion with the righty. On December 13, May signed a one-year deal with the Cardinals after his first stint in free agency, reported by MLB insider Jeff Passan of ESPN.
May was a promising Los Angeles Dodgers prospect many years ago, but his big league career has been marred and constantly cut short by injuries and inconsistency.
